Our expert team guides you through the complex UAE Corporate Tax Law, ensuring you benefit from the 0% corporate tax rate on qualifying income.

What is a Qualifying Free Zone Person (QFZP)?

A QFZP is a company registered in a UAE Free Zone that meets specific legal and operational criteria, allowing it to enjoy a 0% corporate tax rate on qualifying income. Non-qualifying income is taxed at the standard 9% rate.

Key Conditions for QFZP Status

To qualify as a QFZP and access the 0% corporate tax rate, your business must:

Be incorporated or registered in a UAE Free Zone.
Maintain substantial economic presence (adequate assets, staff, and operations) within the Free Zone.
Earn qualifying income from approved activities, as defined by UAE tax law.
Not elect to be taxed under the standard UAE corporate tax regime.
Comply with transfer pricing rules and maintain proper documentation.
Keep audited financial statements.
Ensure non-qualifying revenue does not exceed AED 5 million or 5% of total revenue (whichever is lower).

Failing to meet any of these criteria can result in losing QFZP status and facing the standard 9% corporate tax for up to five years.
